Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a composite sheet and a battery pack using same.
- thermally-conductive members such as the graphite sheets or the like are used.
- lithium ion secondary batteries have become equipped in various equipment, and the current capacity of the batteries has been increasing. Increase in current used by use of the large-current capacity lithium ion battery causes increase in the amount of heat generation. To dissipate the generated heat, thermally-conductive members such as the graphite sheets or the like have been used.
- a composite sheet includes a thermally-conductive sheet, a first insulating sheet that covers one surface of the thermally-conductive sheet, and a second insulating sheet that covers another surface of the thermally-conductive sheet and seals the thermally-conductive sheet between the first insulating sheet and the second insulating sheet.
- the composite sheet further includes a thermal insulation layer laminated between the thermally-conductive sheet and the first insulating sheet so as to cover at least a part of the thermally-conductive sheet.
- This composite sheet has a region which is superior in thermal conduction and a region which is superior in thermal insulation to provide both the performances as a thermally-conductive member and a thermal insulation member.
- a battery pack includes a case, a battery cell disposed inside the case, and the composite sheet bonded to an outer surface of the battery cell.
- the composite sheet is bonded to the battery cell such that the second insulating sheet of the composite sheet contacts the outer surface of the battery cell, and that the thermal insulation layer is disposed between the battery cell to which the composite sheet is bonded and another battery cell adjacent to the battery cell.
- This battery pack is superior in heat dissipation from the battery cell to the case as well as superior in thermal insulation between adjacent battery cells, so that the battery pack has a high reliability.

- FIG. 2B is a sectional view of the composite sheet of the battery pack shown in FIG. 2A .
- FIG. 2C is an exploded perspective view of the battery pack shown in FIG. 2A .
- FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a device in accordance with another exemplary embodiment.
- FIG. 1A is a plan view of composite sheet 11 in accordance with an exemplary embodiment.
- FIG. 1B is a sectional view of composite sheet 11 along line 1 B- 1 B shown in FIG. 1A .
- FIG. 1C is a sectional view of main part 1 C of composite sheet 11 shown in FIG. 1B .
- Composite sheet 11 has thermally-conductive sheet 12 , thermal insulation layer 15 , first insulating sheet 13 , and second insulating sheet 14 .
- Thermally-conductive sheet 12 has a relatively high thermal conductivity
- thermal insulation layer 15 has a relatively low thermal conductivity.
- Each of first insulating sheet 13 and second insulating sheet 14 has an electrical insulation property.
- First insulating sheet 13 covers one surface 12 a of thermally-conductive sheet 12 .
- Second insulating sheet 14 covers another surface 12 b of thermally-conductive sheet 12 .
- First insulating sheet 13 and second insulating sheet 14 have a larger size than thermally-conductive sheet 12 , and are bonded to each other outside the outer periphery of thermally-conductive sheet 12 to seal thermally-conductive sheet 12 .
- Thermal insulation layer 15 is laminated between thermally-conductive sheet 12 and first insulating sheet 13 so as to cover at least a part of thermally-conductive sheet 12 .
- First insulating sheet 13 and second insulating sheet 14 seals thermal insulation layer 15 together with thermally-conductive sheet 12 .
- Composite sheet 11 has a region which has a high thermal conduction property and a region which has a high thermal insulative property. Accordingly, composite sheet 11 is a single member that possesses both performances of a thermally-conductive member and a thermal insulation member. Composite sheet 11 performs functions of both the thermally-conductive member and the thermal insulation member in a restricted space, particularly in an electronic device having a small size. Accordingly, composite sheet 11 can reduce the size of an electronic device.
- a material of thermally-conductive sheet 12 is a graphite sheet having a thickness of about 50 ⁇ m.
- the graphite sheet has high thermal conduction property, and has an in-plane thermal conductivity of about 1300 W/m ⁇ K.
- the graphite sheet has an anisotropic thermal conduction property such that its in-plane thermal conductivity is higher than its through-plane thermal conductivity.
- the graphite sheet as thermally-conductive sheet 12 is particularly preferable for composite sheet 11 because the thermal conduction property of composite sheet 11 becomes better.
- Electrically conductive graphite powder may be produced from the graphite sheet, and that the graphite powder would adhere to an electronic circuit to cause a failure, such as a short circuit, in the electronic circuit. Accordingly, the graphite sheet is sandwiched between first insulating sheet 13 and second insulating sheet 14 which have larger sizes than the graphite sheet. First insulating sheet 13 and second insulating sheet 14 seal the graphite sheet in between outside the outer periphery of the graphite sheet. This configuration prevents scatter of the graphite powder and occurrence of the failure of the electronic circuit.
- thermally-conductive sheet 12 other than the graphite sheet that have high thermal conductivities include, e.g. a gold film, a silver film, an aluminum film, and a copper film.
- thermal insulation layer 15 is a sheet having a thickness of about 0.5 mm made of a non-woven fabric of polyethylene terephthalate (hereinafter abbreviated as PET) holding a silica xerogel thereon.
- the thermal conductivity of thermal insulation layer 15 is about 0.020 W/m ⁇ K, which is smaller than the thermal conductivity of air, about 0.026 W/m ⁇ K. Since the thermal conductivity of thermal insulation layer 15 is smaller than the thermal conductivity of air, thermal insulation layer 15 of composite sheet 11 has a superior thermal insulation property with a small volume, hence reducing a size of composite sheet 11 .
- Thermal insulation layer 15 preferably has a thickness change rate equal to or smaller than 10% to a pressure of 100 kPa applied to thermal insulation layer 15 .
- Thermal insulation layer 15 made of a non-woven fabric of PET holding a silica xerogel thereon has a small thickness change rate of about 3% to a pressure of 100 kPa applied thereto. Thermally-conductive layer 15 less reduces the thermal insulation performance even under application of a pressure, so that it has a high reliability.
- thermal insulation layer 15 includes a non-woven fabric and a xerogel held on the non-woven fabric, thermal insulating layer 15 is superior in thermal insulation property and can maintain preferable thermal insulation property even under a condition that a pressure is applied.
- thermal insulation layer 15 may be, e.g. an air layer and a sheet made of foamed urethane, which have low thermal conductivities.
- air layer or a foamed sheet is used as thermally-conductive sheet 15 , there is a possibility that the thermally-conductive sheet is pressed under application of a pressure, and its thermal insulation property reduces.
- First insulating sheet 13 includes base layer 13 a made of an insulating film, and adhesive layer 13 b stacked on one surface of base layer 13 a .
- Base layer 13 a is a polyethylene terephthalate insulating film having a thickness of about 10 ⁇ m.
- Adhesive layer 13 b is made of an acrylic adhesive layer having a thickness of about 10 ⁇ m.
- First insulating sheet 13 is bonded to thermally-conductive sheet 12 and second insulating sheet 14 via adhesive layer 13 b.
- Second insulating sheet 14 includes base layer 14 a made of an insulating film, adhesive layer 14 b provided at a first surface 14 d of insulating sheet 14 facing thermally-conductive sheet 12 , and adhesive layer 14 c provided at a second surface 14 e of insulating sheet 14 opposite to first surface 14 d .
- Base layer 14 a is a polyethylene terephthalate insulating film having a thickness of about 10 ⁇ m.
- Each of adhesive layer 14 b and adhesive layer 14 c is made of an acrylic adhesive layer having a thickness of about 10 ⁇ m.
- Second insulating sheet 14 is bonded to thermally-conductive sheet 12 and first insulating sheet 13 via adhesive layer 14 b.
- the acrylic adhesive has a large adhesion force to the graphite sheet. Accordingly, adhesive layer 13 b and adhesive layer 14 b preferably bond first insulating sheet 13 and second insulating 14 to the graphite sheet, so that a preferable heat transfer property and a preferable mechanical strength can be obtained. Also, it is possible to preferably seal thermal insulation layer 15 .
- Thermal insulation layer 15 made of the PET non-woven fabric holding silica xerogel thereon has a small adhesion force to the adhesive since silica particles easily exfoliate.
- Thermal insulation layer 15 sandwiched and sealed between thermally-conductive sheet 12 and first insulating sheet 13 prevents silica particles from scattering out of composite sheet 11 . Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a failure caused by scattering of silica particles while maintaining the thermal insulation property.

Thermal conduction to thermal insulation surface 31 can be suppressed. Accordingly, composite sheet 11 has both a superior thermally-insulative property and a superior thermally-conductive property.
